Tired and dated, everything gave the air of being worn out. Staff friendly but overall the whole place needs a spruce up.

Disappointing ”

Breakfast was good, location was great, rooms need a good reno. Dark and musty. We were given single beds instead of doubles as paid for and told nothing else was available. Disappointed as for the price you can get much better value for money in seminyak.

Decent place, cheapest hotel for beachfront resort at Nusa Dua however, facilities very poor. Acceptable standard if you don't want to spent much time in the room.

loved it!”

Its situated in Nusa Dua which is a good area if you would like to take a breather before your journey begins. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The facilities are always clean, the breakfast at the restaurant is a really good and the atmosphere is very relaxing. Try wake up early for the sunrise and sit in the garden next door, you won't regret it.
Overall, definitely satisfied!

Fantastic stay, quiet friendly hotel. Old style Bali...wonderful.”

A real gem if you prefer real Balinese friendliness and style rather than concrete carpark style big hotels. We loved it, every minute. Yes it is old but honest and that is its charm. From the cool pool ( shallow and deep so beautifully cool) and right next to the beach (which is methodically cleaned) , the cool bougainvillea roof, lovely old gardens and big cool rooms with their own quiet shady verandah. Yes the bathrooms were not built in 2016 but they are practical and clean with good hot and cold water pressure. A nice big fridge, good comfy bed and indoor seating set of the cool restful room.
There is also a wonderful restaurant right next to the pool so meals can be enjoyed looking out to sea. Enjoy we did. MR. BOB's restaurant was great, we thoroughly enjoyed the baby ribs, great taste, juicy and cooked brilliantly. We were also lucky enough to taste test their new Arak and wild mountain honey liqueur, check the specials board to see if it is available, a really great end to a lovely meal.
This hotel is a hidden gem, can't wait to return. Many thanks to Nyoman, Ketut and Harry for their real Balinese hospitality.

Facilites need a major facelift”

the 4 star rating of this hotel is misleading. Although rooms have ample space, the bathroom is quite honestly pretty disgusting. The showers have all sorts of rust over the faucet and the sink and toilet are just old and need to be replaced. The beach right next to the hotel is used for fishing boats and the sand was dirty with trash and the water looked pretty gross. Overall, I would've paid a little more to stay in a nicer place.

If you are looking for an authentic, charming, quiet Bali experience you can't beat this. Staff outs”

If you are looking for an authentic, charming, quiet Bali experience you can't beat this. Staff outstanding! Bungalows - a Bali experience of old - may be a little tired but they are spacious, clean, cool and plenty of hot water. With only 20 rooms you get your own space, a quiet pool and Mr Bob's bar and grill is kicking off this month. They couldn't do enough to make you welcome! We stayed just under two weeks and could have stayed for a month. Great value!! Happy Aussies!

My wife and I stayed here for 2 nights and loved it. Location is perfect, staff were excellent, Nyoman and Susie (the managers) were on hand to meet the guests and get to know you.. They were also happy to take on advice like putting kettles for boiling water in the rooms. The place is really on the up and close to many great eating places. We would definitely come back to stay here. Oh and the even gave us a later checkout to match our flights. Great value really reasonably priced. Thankyou Sharon and David 16.8.16

Moreover I am happy to stay there at the current room price.

Excellent Stay in Wonderful Hotel! ”

New management since April 1st are committed to making your stay a luxury!! We spoke personally to the general manager and were so impressed with his commitment to making Matahari a wonderful stay for everyone.
Our stay at Matahari Terbit Bali was just excellent. First off the property is beautiful! The garden is lush, the pool looks out over the ocean and the rooms are huge. What really made this place special was the staff and the general manager and his family. On our first morning we met the General Manager, Nyomi, who greeted us and invited us to enjoy breakfast in the hotel restaurant which overlooks the ocean. The picturesque setting paired with a nice breakfast was a great addition to our stay. Additionally Nyomi started chatting and told us about the hotel and asked us for our feedback on everything. There are a few quirks to the place that they are still working out but they are committed to excellence and we experienced just that.

The restaurant served good food and there is a new menu on the way which we sampled and thoroughly enjoyed. If I had to be negative about anything it would be that the hotel just needs a little tlc. The rooms were clean,spacious and the a/c worked well. Situated on the beach and within easy walking distance to many restaurants. Definitely value for money. We would stay again. Mr Bob.

Great find!”

This was a last minute booking when I was on the way to Bali; I had a two day layover and wanted a quiet place to relax. Some of the poor reviews had me skeptical.. I was really sceptical, but was pleasantly surprised!! Yes, some things need to be updated, the wi-fi drops off at times, and my tv didn't work, but everything else made up for it. The staff is AMAZING! Very kind, pleasant, and attentive to my needs. Everyday they have workers tending to the grounds and cleaning rooms, all smiling and saying hello. The small restaurant and pool area are fabulous, situated just on the beach. The beach isn't the best for swimming, but a great place to relax. Some great shops and restaurants just outside the front of the hotel. If you want a stiff, 5-star sort of place, take your business down the road. If you want a real place to relax, live authentic, and be treated like family, the Matahari Terbit is for you. I'll definitely be back.

Food and Hotel area (pool and breakfast area)

It was OK for a 4-Star hotel. Toilet and Shower were broken when we entered the room.
We had to ask the staff to fix it.
On the other hand room was comfortable, big and adequately clean.
Staff could get pushy about Spa and driver services. At times till the point that you want to just
get the leaflet and drop it in the bin straightaway.
Gourmet restaurant offers a nice twist to the regular dishes. Breakfast and pool area is good.
The beach is not what I expected. It was dirty and not good for swimming. I saw some small boats parked in front of the hotel

As we get in the room after, it was like a swwiming pool in bathroom and on the door. Water was leaking from room and through ceiling light which could be life threating hazard. Hotel staff cleaned it later. In morning, breakfast was not pleasent. Do understand that its cheap but not worth 4 star and atleast u dont deserve water leaking in room.

Very underrated hotel!”

location, classic cottages, value for money

I was a bit skeptical before reaching Matahari Terbit, but I was proven wrong. THe hotel was built in 1997, most likely by German investors since up until now I see signs written in German everywhere in the hotel. It's a classic cottage style facing the beach which is also very nice. The garden was well-kept and the professional staff catering to our every need.
The room was huge and well-kept despite looking so old.
The only thing I wish the hotel can change is the interior of the bathroom in each room. I seriously wouldn't mind an old room because it's so well kept, but the interior of the bathroom definitely needs changing because it's so old and I could see limestone signs everywhere. The hot water definitely was there but it was lacking in power. Definitely need redesigning the bathroom. Honestly the bathroom isn't even that bad. I just wish they could fix it into better ones.
I love this place and definitely will go there again. It's a very nice retreat from the busy city and I felt so welcomed there.

A cosy hotel with the Bali character we love.”

Beachfront site. Tranquil garden setting in a busy location with many choices of eateries and shopping just metres away. Value for money.

We were happy to find the extensive gardens being maintained. We love to stay at this small hotel where the staff become friends and our stay is relaxed in a quiet setting. Every unit has a huge balcony and a good degree of privacy. Rooms are spacious with seating both indoors and out. The pool and restaurant and on the front of the hotel with great views of the beach where there is always activity from cruise liners, naval ships, fishermen and water sports.
We were fortunate to speak with the new manager, Nyoman, and to hear of the planned updates. New wifi has increased coverage throughout, the restaurant menu is to be refreshed and linen is being replaced. There is a positive vibe around the future of this unique hotel.
